Thursday is Mr. Conard's morning on the Short Hills Campus and this morning was extra special! After his meeting, he and Mr. Corvino stopped by the garden to help out with a little garden maintenance and some planting! Together with a first and third grade class, they planted lettuce and peppers, watered veggies, filled up wheel barrows with soil and enjoyed a morning of garden fun! We look forward to more visits!
The big fall clean up has begun! Students are raking leaves, cleaning out beds of old plants and dead heading the last few cycles of our beautiful marigolds. Our Pingry scarecrow has done its work and has been put away. Soon our garden will be a cold, still, quiet place as it goes to sleep for the winter.

Mr. Corvino visits the garden!
The sun is out and there is LOTS of activity in the garden today! Mr. Corvino joined several classes for some morning planting and got a "how to" lesson on planting radishes, broccoli and cauliflower. He also helped making math grids for some of the other raised beds. Our community garden is really shaping up!
